The Money Pit, a nationally-syndicated home improvement radio show is seeking DIY related products or services for a live broadcast from the National Hardware Show Floor on Wednesday May 5th. We will interview a representative from your company for approximately four minutes detailing features and benefits of the product or service. New, user friendly and money saving ideas are best suited to our format. The product should be widely available and appeal to a wide variety of DIYers. Hosts Tom Kraeutler and Leslie Segrete are fun, energetic and infuse humor in everything they do... guests should be media-savvy, entertaining, well-versed in their product and above all, lively! Boring guests droning on about boring products will not make the cut! There is no cost to participate. Guests must be available between 3 and 5pm local (Las Vegas) time on Wednesday March 5th and able to come to our booth location TBD. Submit your pitch via EMAIL ONLY to Money Pit's executive producer sheetal@moneypit.com, no later than close of business Monday April 19th.
